Not only Koh Chang offers fun and frolic in the sea, sand and sun, another kind of fun and frolic awaits as the island undergoes a drastic metamorphosis once the sun hits the ground. Most beaches on Koh Chang have their fair share of nighttime establishments, ranging from cosy cafés, relaxing pubs and lively beach and beer bars. Some resorts feature great facilities like karaoke rooms, in-house pubs and restaurants with live music or nightly movie screening.

For the raunchier side of things, make your way to the aptly dubbed ‘Little Pattaya’, a small concentration of beer bars located on the southern end of the White Sand Beach (just before the road goes up the hill).

Bars

Bars on Koh Chang come in three different categories. The first one is roadside bars, usually found along the main road of each beach. These places offer cheap cocktails and beers, and some also serve a choice of local and international snacks. Then there’s a beer bar. A misnomer, beer bar also serves cheap cocktails as well as other kinds of drinks like whiskey and spirit. It’s a great place to hang out, especially if you’re a single male traveler looking for a companion for the night. A clutter of formulaic beer bars can be found in almost every beach area. The major ones one are located towards the end of the White Sand Beach (also known as ‘Little Pattaya’ for obvious reasons) and in the middle of Kai Bae Beach. Perhaps the most popular ones of all three are beach bars. Often with low chairs and seats (some places provide rubber mats for guests to sit right on the very beach), beach bars are extremely famous, and have become synonymous with Koh Chang nightlife. Delight in great live music, affordable drinks and exciting fire shows, which are featured on a nightly basis.

Karaoke

Satisfy your inner divo and diva and belt out your favourite tunes at the karaoke facilities offered by major hotels and resorts in popular beach areas like White Sand Beach, Klong Prao Beach, Kai Bae Beach and Lonely Beach.
